There is something you've been secretly pondering over and you're now ready to act on new ideas. To do this you must bring your plans out into the open. You need the support of a friend before you can go any further. Make some enquiries and find out whether others are willing to give you the backing you need. Preparing others for what might lie ahead is the first step of a long and exciting new journey.

You're bothered about an issue relating to a joint project even if others aren't troubled about this. Perhaps in connection with a recent small slip up or oversight, you wonder whether the matter has been dealt with as efficiently as someone is making out. To put your mind at rest, make some discreet enquiries. Spotting a possible blunder about to happen and having others appreciate your attentiveness will add to your feeling of self confidence.

You want to feel as if you're making a valued contribution to a group or charitable venture. Although you are experienced and skilled in this area, you will be happy to let others take the lead if you respect their management skills. You will be forging a strong link with like minded people. As a result you will be able to disregard any minor nuisances and focus on all the good things happening, instead.

If your own efforts in some areas are lacking in some way, you may be tempted to place things into someone else's hands. This may mean another person will be taking all the credit. Therefore all the work you have done so far will never be acknowledged. There will be no compensation for your efforts. Can you walk away or do you keep going until you find a way around the problems you're now facing?

You should be feeling pleased about developments of a joint nature. Putting your emotions into words won't be easy as you can't think of how to describe what you are currently feeling. You're in an impressionable mood and others seem to know the best ways to get around you. Sometimes there's nothing you like better than indulging those you love and you're certainly doing alright in making your lover's toes curl this evening!

You might accept the only way to get some jobs done and out of the way is to work as a team. Even so you will prefer to stay in the background and you will leave it to others to get on with whatever needs to be tackled up front. You know how to bring out the best in other people and you also know they appreciate your quiet and unrelenting support. You will be working hard but you're simply not in the mood for anything that puts you in the spotlight today.

A partner or lover has romance in mind and you are keen on their suggestions. It won't be easy because of this to have to admit you've made other plans you cannot get out of. The trouble is, you're trying to please too many people and you are taking on too many obligations. Having to delay personal and romantic pursuits because you're making the needs of your friends a priority suggests you've got your priorities all wrong!

Recent agreements made within the family may have to be changed due to unexpected problems. Others are willing to relax the rules to give you the chance to fulfil obligations outside the home. It is quite possible a loved one is making sacrifices on your behalf without a word of protest or complaint. You aren't blind to how much they're putting themselves out for you and you will find a way to make it up to them in the future.

A friend or neighbour has some important decisions to make; they would appreciate your advice. You might worry other people are relying too much on you to make their choices for them. To ignore their requests could cause a rift in this relationship. Even so you might have to tell them in as subtle a way as possible that your views are meaningless when it is their life and when they should be making up their own mind.

It will take a wee while longer but soon you will start feeling as if you have more control of new situations. Having to ask someone to hand over a responsibility they cannot handle will not be easy but if you are honest, they will appreciate your candidness. Secretly a friend or colleague will be glad to relinquish duties they're struggling with, but it's unlikely they'll say it outright!

Grab the chance a man in your life offers for you to turn a skill or special ability to good use. He can see the potential of your talents and he will get you to see this too. With the right kind of encouragement you will come up with all sorts of bright and wonderful ideas. The action other people are willing to take on your behalf will bring your deepest desires and aspirations within your grasp.

Take the opportunity to sort out a few things in your mind when lately you've not had a lot of time to yourself. Later you will get the chance to prove to others you are more capable than they may have thought. You can keep on top of all snags that rear their heads by tackling problems as and when they arise. Someone you always like to impress will compliment you on the way you handle a minor crisis.
